We’ve read enough mystery novels and watched enough TV to know we want a hidden room bookcase leading to another secret room. We haven’t decided what will go in our hidden room, but we do know it will be awesome.  Will it be a secret room?  Well, that all depends upon whether or not we can refrain from showing it off to friends and family.

If you’re like us, you want one of these too. Gary Katz, over at This Is Carpentry, shares a detailed tutorial on how to make a hidden room bookcase that pivots. He admits that this project is not easy, and he’s still working to perfect his craft. We love what he’s built, and we know many people out there will benefit from his expertise and all his tips.
